and I beheld
| Morphological Notes | Conjunction וְ + Qal perfect 1cs of רָאָה; forms include waw-consecutive (Vqq1cs) and simple waw + perfect (Vqp1cs), functioning as first-person singular past narrative. |
| Rendering Rationale | The verb is Qal perfect, first person common singular, with prefixed conjunction (waw), yielding a past narrative sense: "and I saw." The rendering "and I beheld" preserves the first-person singular perspective and reflects the root’s emphasis on direct perception or experiential seeing. |
